Good for its Purpose

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is really good for when milia or small blackheads build up on my cheekbones. I don’t use it everyday but it’s very effective when I do.

Good

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

SkinCeuticals Retexturing Activator does a good job of hydrating and exfoliating at the same time. It is sensitive skin friendly. Using this, I am not breaking out and have no redness on my skin.

Slight difference

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I did notice my skin being softer and less textured. It leaves my skin looking glowy and plump. The texture of the serum is tacky but it dries fine.

For sensitive or sensitized skin that can't tolerate exfoliants

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love the RA because it's an amazing option for skin that might not be tolerating exfoliants like glycolic acid. Perhaps you over exfoliated, or you'll be  doing a series of professional treatments (consult with your esthetician). In my ~3 years using this it's consistently diminished surface/expression lines, softened/hydrated my skin, smoothed areas where pores are very visible (like a radiant–not matte–powder might). It simultaneously moisturizes while exfoliating; which is the magic of the main ingredient: urea. Unfortunately, we don't have many products containing urea in the States. But this one is an absolute winner. Is also amazing when starting retinol and switching out acids!!

Skin revitalizer

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This never fails to completely refresh my skin's texture literally overnight. There's no burning sensation like one might expect from a product like this & it makes my face feel so soft the next day!

Fan Favorite!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I am a huge fan of this magical little serum! I’ve been using SC products consistently for 3 years and if I could only use one, this would be it. This has such a smooth, silky texture when applied and spreads so evenly. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and moisturized and ready for makeup (or not!). In warmer months when my skin tends to be a little more oily, I don’t even need an additional moisturizer after this!

Great under makeup

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I use this especially when I wear makeup, it helps plump my skin and lock in hydration. I used to use it daily, but have cut back as I have increased my retinol use. I still love it, makes my skin feel really soft. Although I rarely wear makeup, I’ll use it alternating with retinol since I have sensitive skin so I don’t get irritated.
